AUNTIE LISA visits

SO one of my bestest of friends came to visit this past weekend. Our friendship has now been going strong for 12 years now. We met our freshman year of college at WSU and both were Kappas. I knew we'd be good friends after we talked for hours about our high school sweetheart boyfriends at the time on Kappas smoking porch. (disclaimer...we were not smoking:). HA! Do you remember that Lisa?

Anyways, we had a great girls weekend. You know you're good friends when you find your friend putting styrofoam letters on your daughters head in the bathtub, when you have secretly done it too!!!

xxoo Lisa, we miss ya already.

USA'S BIRTHDAY

For our beloved USA's birthday this year, we headed over to good old Eastern Oregon to visit my in-laws. The weather was perfect and it had been way too long since we had been back. Lots of good times with everyone. Can't wait to go back for Pendleton Round Up's 100 year Anniversary this year in September!!

I look at these photos and I can't believe Parker is almost 11 months old. She is such a happy and sweet little girl, and feel very, very lucky. She is standing and "furniture walking" everywhere and most recently has learned to nod her head "no." Not sure if this is a good thing or bad thing yet;)

Her smile makes my heart melt and I would do anything.... just about anything for my cute little pumpkin;)

Hope you all had a great 4th!
